Anyone expecting a scorched Earth approach from Wes Welker on his way out of New England can keep waiting. The wide receiver had only nice things to say about the Patriots during his introductory news conference with the Denver Broncos.

"I was probably the one pitching to (Elway)," Welker said. "Trying to make this happen and everything."

It was a strange, surreal news conference. Despite the countless reports about the lack of respect he felt from the Patriots, Welker didn't publicly convey any animosity.

"Everything was on good terms," Welker said about his relationship with Patriots coach Bill Belichick. "I feel like everything was good. Any time you are a competitor, you are going to clash at times. But overall we always had a great relationship. Everything's on good terms. I have no ill feelings or anything else."
